As the war continues throughout Lebanon, the impact on children and vulnerable families is becoming increasingly severe. In this moving update video, Denise Dagher, Kids Alive Lebanon’s Country Director, shares how the crisis is affecting the communities we serve — and how our staff are continuing to respond with courage, compassion and faith.

Despite the uncertainty and fear surrounding them, our team in Lebanon remains committed to protecting and supporting children through our school, family support programmes and emergency outreach work. Many of the children we serve are experiencing deep anxiety and trauma as airstrikes, displacement and instability continue across the country. Families are struggling to access work, food and basic necessities, while many displaced households are living in temporary shelters or overcrowded conditions.
